Blue star road

In the Star Garden, the Speaker of Parliament was chatting half-chat while drinking tea.

"Let's discuss today the political system of the Astor Empire and the political system of the Free State of Rhine. Do you think they have any similarities and differences between them?"

After thinking for a few minutes, Su Bai said: "The political systems of these two countries look completely different on the surface, but they are actually the same. The only difference lies in the different control strength of the rulers at the top of the pyramid, and the fact that there is no A fig leaf, a fig leaf on a surface.”

"The analysis is very unique. Which of their political systems do you think is better?"

The Speaker replied with a smile.

Su Bai thought for a moment and said: "Both have flaws and cannot be said to be perfect. But if they can be combined, it would be perfect."

"What a combination."

the Speaker asked with a smile.

“It has the absolute dictatorship and centripetal force of the theocratic emperor, but also some democratic freedom and yearning.”

Su Bai pondered for a long time and finally came up with a wild idea.

"What you said is itself a collection of contradictions."

Long Yan smiled and replied.

"Too."

Su Bai nodded.

"You have learned a lot of knowledge by following me during this period. I happened to encounter three difficult events recently and it was difficult to make a decision. I will consider them as considerations for you. Come and take a look."

After Long Yan finished speaking, he took out three submitted document applications from the side and handed them to Su Bai.

Su Bai took the three documents, opened them and looked at the contents carefully.

These three documents correspond to three major events that have recently occurred in the Star Alliance.

The first document is about the loss of quota materials in the second-level area of ​​Tarkarion, the city around the stars. It involves the third quarter material subsidy for 3.2 million people, which can be said to be a huge deficit.

The reason for the deficit has been found out, because the supplies issued by the Star Alliance were obtained from the local supply warehouse.

Takarion's material warehouse itself is empty, and it is just making superficial accounts all year round.

All the officials involved were also captured. According to the confessions obtained, the reason why the material warehouse was in short supply was because the annual share of tax revenue was not fully collected, so naturally no materials were distributed.

But if subsidies are not given now, the survival of the 3.2 million people in that area will be problematic. If it is unrealistic to make up for the shortfall, there is no corruption at all. The Star Alliance currently has no extra supplies to provide, and it is basically a carrot and a pit.

The second document is a report on the Star Alliance's economic malaise. The report shows that the Star Alliance's economic index this quarter not only did not rise, but has a downward trend, requiring new economic stimulus.

The third sub-document is about the riots in the Mixiva District. This area was originally a monarchy system. Due to the impact of the Star Alliance democracy, the local people were dissatisfied with the rule of the direct council members in the area, and conflicts accumulated over the years. Coupled with this incident of the nobles hurting people, conflicts were triggered across the board, and many people rose up to resist. Now the Star Alliance is in a dilemma. If you support the members of the Missiwa District, you will lose the hearts and minds of the people in that area. At the same time, this incident There was a lot of commotion, and many people in the Star Alliance were paying attention. If you do not support Congressman Missiwa, then on the one hand it will violate the treaty established by the original Star Alliance, and it will also cause uneasiness among other members of the Star Alliance countries with different systems.

Su Bai looked at these three documents, his head was pounding, each one was more difficult than the last.

Long Yan reached out and patted Su Bai on the shoulder.

"Take your time, think carefully, don't be in a hurry."

"yes."

Su Bai replied with twitching corners of his mouth.

After Long Yan finished his explanation, he slowly left, leaving Su Bai sitting alone, staring at the three documents in a daze.

Time passes little by little.

Unknowingly, the sky had darkened, and Su Bai was still sitting there, looking at the three documents and thinking carefully.

Until late at night, Chairman Long Yan passed by Xingyuan and saw Su Bai still thinking in the pavilion.

He nodded happily. Although Su Bai was a genius, he did not lack hardship and perseverance.

So Long Yan walked over and said to Su Bai.

"Still thinking about the answer? Don't worry and think slowly. This is not something that can be solved in a short time."

"No, Mr. Parliament Speaker, I have already thought of a response policy."

Su Bai stood up and replied calmly.

"Oh? So fast? Then tell me."

Chairman Long Yan Council was also slightly surprised.

Su Bai said to the Chairman of the Longyan Council: "As for the material shortage in Takarien's second-level district, although it is not their fault, the second-level councilors of Takarien bear the main responsibility, no matter what the reason is! Failure to turn over supplies and shortfalling the Star Alliance's strategic reserves is a violation of the Star Alliance's treaty. Therefore, on the one hand, it requires its second-level members to make up for the gap. If it is really unable to make up, the Star Alliance can step in to find a relatively wealthy person nearby. Adjust the region, allocate part of the food, and first solve the shortage of supplies in the local area. This account will be hung on the body of the second-level councilor Takarion. At the same time, the direct supervisor of the Star Alliance will be dispatched to implement the implementation of the plan for that area in the coming year. tax and material reserves, and issued a notice of criticism to the congressman. In addition, the Star Alliance will support poor areas in the coming year and needs to pay extra attention to that area to promote its economic recovery and production. "

After hearing what Su Bai said, Long Yan's eyes moved slightly.

"continue."

Su Bai then said to Long Yan: "Regarding the economic downturn of the Star Alliance, it is not a strange thing, but a natural phenomenon. The Star Alliance as a whole is like a person. When a person does not get food, no matter what adjustments he makes, In the end, it is still consuming the energy of the body, so if you want to solve this problem, you need to obtain a large amount of resources from the outside world, so I recommend opening up a space civilian mining license. Civilian group companies with a certain scale and technology can apply for this from the Star Alliance. license, you can also rent the Covenant's excess spaceships (when building the Second Expeditionary Force, there were many types of spaceships of various types), go to nearby planets for short-term resource extraction, and the Covenant can charge a high tax of 30%. , and can also receive equipment rentals. This will promote overall development and also reduce the Covenant's maintenance costs for the expeditionary ships. Of course, this involves a series of issues such as planetary drift route adjustment and indirect suspension of flight rest. I believe these are not problems.”

"In this case, doesn't it mean giving them the whole cake?"

Long Yan looked at Su Bai and replied calmly.

"That's not the case. When civilian enterprises are operating, the Star Alliance military headquarters can also carry out large-scale operations. Generally speaking, the Star Alliance always eats the big head and gives some soup to the people below. I think as long as it is done properly, there is still no problem. questionable."

"Go on."

The flashing colors in Long Yan's eyes became more and more vivid.
